Celandine, I found it! We just moved but I only had to dig in a few boxes! Here it is:<P>I walk down the street.<BR>There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.<BR>I fall in.<BR>I am lost...I am hopeless.<BR>It isn't my fault.<BR>It takes forever to find a way out.<P>I walk down the same street.<BR>There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.<BR>I pretend I don't see it.<BR>I fall in again.<BR>I can't believe I'm in the same place.<BR>But it isn't my fault.<BR>It still takes a long time to get out.<P>I walk down the same street.<BR>There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.<BR>I see it there.<BR>I still fall in...it's a habit.<BR>My eyes are open. I know where I am.<BR>It is my fault.<BR>I get out immediately.<P>I walk down the same street.<BR>There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.<BR>I walk around it.<P>I walk down another street.<P><BR>I love the profound wisdom and see myself in this poem during the A and now in recovery. I am not Tibetan but sure appreciate this truth! ![[Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]](http://www.marriagebuilders.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif) <P>------------------<BR>Fresh Start

That's the poem! I'm going to make sure to save it and copy it out. Words of wisdom indeed. <P>Thanks so much Freshstart! I appreciate that you took the time to root around in boxes for it. <P>God bless you,<BR>celandine
